If you would have actually UNDERSTOOD my post, than you would've realized that Elias WILL be the king for the long term..
Ken's just making Elias king so that he can find a way to restore the "classic" SatAMish pre-50 dynamic between the Freedom Fighters. That, and he wants to buy Sonic/Sally some time before the obstacles resurface. Ken and BobR even went out of their way to infer Alexis as Elias' step-child so she can't rule in the future. Why would they go out of their way to say Alexis was his step-child if they didn't want Sally to rule? That, and the fact Ken (and BobR)wants M25YL to be legitamate.
The problem is, this story didn't exactly "solve" anything. The obstacles hindering Sonic and Sally (and one could argue Bunnie and Antione), even with Elias as a temporary ruler haven't exactly been resolved, and provided it resurrfaces (when Sally becomes queen, or re-takes her position as queen or in)will just bring them back old problems from this past year. All I'm saying that this is most deffinately a problem (and this issue DID touch up on Sonic and Sally somewhat after all...).
Also, Elias has proven to be a fairly poor ruler in the past. And because he lacked experience, he was succeptable to letting people use him like a doormat (*cough* St. Jhon *cough*). Nobody on the royal family save Sally actually has the experience to rule the kingdom, or even help Elias
for that matter. So the idea that Sally would be more benefitial to governing would still be legit.
Having Sally elevate someone as king may be dangerous, especially if they're untrustworthy. But I'm guessing Meg missed the point where an incompetent ruler is just a dangerous to the people's wellbeing.

As i already said, Max CANNOT take the throne back after abdicating it.
True, but Sally still can.
I said no M25YL or Sonic/Sally discussion. That's temp ban #1 as there have been 3 prior warnings given to everyone here.
I suggest if anyone decides to respond to Shorty's last post that they watch their comments. I don't kid.
HyperShadow, In my post i said Elias will do well in the short term. Which i meant is that he'll do well at first, and then mess up. However, if you thought i meant that Elias resigns, then you should of thought that i then meant Sally becomes Monarch. Instead of thinking that I meant Max being King again where I said NOTHING about that idea.
If you want to continue this 'Dead` argument, ezpost me. Like a 'clever' member like you should know.
I am so glad I don't buy Archie...Elias is one of my favorite characters but seriously, this guy as the king? Remember how well that worked out last time...who was smoking the green when they came up with that point? Sonic and Fiona...was Ian behind this...
I dont think Ian has started writing yet. And I dont think Ken does drugs. <_< well maybe...
Shendu, why would you even mention Ken doing drugs?!
That is very rude, and possibly offensive toward him.
Shame...
Actually, it was Tornadot who mentioned Ken doing drugs. Shendu was saying that it was unlikely.
Actually it was Tornadot who mentioned someone had to be doing drugs to come up with this plot point. I never mentioned Ken, neither was I aware that he had wrote it...
Do I hear a sorry? hehe...
Lets get on topic before I get punished because I get all the blame.
Being an Elias fan, I have to say, I was very excited that they brought him back in this issue. He's my favourite character, and I wish they'd do more with him and Meg and Alexis (who I was shocked to discover wasn't really his-though it makes sense), but I don't think he should have been made King. It just gives the Archie nimrods (my apologies) yet another chance to screw him over as a character again.
As for the Sonic/Fiona thing... Don't get me started. Wrong is all I can say, for fear of True Red.
I haven't fully read through all the other comments on this topic yet so here goes...
Although I wish for the life of me that Anti-Antione NEVER made it into the picture I was quite happy that Elias came into the scene and saved all their butts. No offence, but I thought Sally made a terrible ruler with all the things Karl and Ken were putting her through in the last 20 or so issues. At least now Sally can remember her roots and learn to appreciate what Sonic's doing now. BEING A FREEDOM FIGHTER!
Okay now for the nit-picky stuff. Why oh why did Fry draw their wedding kiss as a peck on the cheek? Come on!? If you're going to act out a full blown wedding with a stadium audience do it with a real smooch! ^__~
I don't know if it was feelings of love or friendship for Sally that made him want to stop that wedding. Can't say I blame him for trying to though! I'm just confused on why he went through all that trouble just to end up holding hands with Fiona fox in the end. Perhaps it was friendship in the end at all...
I really like the panel where Sally was bear hugging her brother. We need to see more of THAT happy Sally. Not that, "I need to support my husband" shiza! That line right there just really irked me. It seemed almost uncaring for her personality, though she's been like that for the past couple of issues.
